They did not want me trying to minister to the trolls over there. So I originally went to the .com version of this site, and they welcomed me for a while, then was kicked out for talking about God, in such a way that they could not easily dismiss. So I came here, and thought is was in for more of the same, but the admins here truly welcomed me and I have been here for almost two years.

If only you had some ideas you'd be all set, wouldn't you?

I've brought a couple of people with me here from there, and they've been bann. the most recent 'saved by grace.' Why? Because he would not respect the 'safe place' you all have created, for yourselves. They hide behind a dozen stated rules, and you all hide behind one. 'You shall not preach.' Tell me again who's closed minded, If there are limits on what can and can not be discussed?

There is nothing wrong with have a 'safe place' where like minded people can come together to discuss their ideals and regulate what is discussed. If any of us want to cross our comfort zones and have a discussion with those who do not value the same things you do, one must have an open enough mind to regulate what you say and do to fit the other format, at the same time not compromising your own core beliefs.

The real trick is, to find a place that will allow you to do both.

lol I wouldn't last there either.

my intro would probably consist of innuendos, complaints about my parent's ministry growing up, and equal rights for marriage.

The end!

Even by your low standards you are really boring when you start preaching.
